asked the Attorney-General whether he has received a report from the Crown Prosecution Service Staff Commission; and if he will make a statement.

I have recently received the Report of the Crown Prosecution Service Staff Commission upon its work during the establishement of the new Service. Copies of the report are being discributed to interested parties, and I have arranged for a copy to be placed in the Library of the House.The Chairman of the Staff Commission and his two commissioners have produced a most comprehensive and helpful report and I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for their endeavours.
